Problems syncronising between Onenote 2007 and a Mobile 6 PDA

[Poynder]

Hi all

I have an Ipaq PDA running Mobile 6, a laptop running XP Home and a desktop
running Vista Ultimate x64.

On the desktop I have installed a fully registered version of Office 2007 (
Office Home and Student version ) including Onenote 2007.
On the laptop I installed a trial version of Onenote 2007.

I installed Onenote mobile from the laptop onto my PDA as I had had so much
trouble with WMDC on a Vista Home computer. All seemed fine but I could not
sync OneNote between the laptop and the PDA, all othe active syncs were fine.

I scoured the net for an answer and tried most of them with no luck.

I then found a 64 bit version of WMDC and tried that. Syncing between the
desktop and PDA was fine so being brave I thought I would try syncing
Onenote, no luck.

I thought I would try deleteing Onenote from my PDA incase as it was
installed from a trial version on the Laptop it might cause problems. I
fired up Onenote on the desktop, went to Tools, Options and down to Onenote
Mobile only to find out that the option to install it was greyed out.

Help!

Should it make any difference if I installed Onenote from a trial version or
not?

Why can I not install Onenote Mobile from my Desktop?

Any other suggestions most welcome.

Regards... Colin Boyd

To remove OneNote mobile from the PDA, use ActiveSync on the notebook.
Menu: Tools-Add/Remove Programs...

Once removed you should be able to re-install OneNote.

To remove OneNote mobile from the PDA, use ActiveSync on the
notebook. Menu: Tools-Add/Remove Programs...

It's *Vista* on the PC and that does not work with ActiveSynch.
In "Windows Mobile Device Center" I did not yet find a feature for
uninstalling programs on the PDA.

So I really wonder how ON might be un-installed.

I don't use Vista so haven't tried it but this may help with removing apps
via WMDC:

Thanks a whole lot.
It's easy enough as the WMDC offers the same functionality.
I was just blind :-( :-(

Thanks again

version or not?

No, it does not make any difference. The trial-version is identical with
the registered version.

Why can I not install Onenote Mobile from my Desktop?

As Dave already said use ActiveSync from your laptop.
You use the WMDC from the desktop instead.
